Bocar Diong Senegalese
Not on view
Bocar Diong was a pioneering figure in contemporary Senegalese art. Originally trained at the École des Arts du Sénégal, he gained international recognition for his paintings and tapestries. Lity-Lity is a vibrant portrait of a woman in profile, reflecting Diong’s mastery of simplified, abstract forms and his dynamic use of lines. Moving away from the epic and mythological themes of his earlier work, this tapestry focuses on the female figure, exemplifying his innovative approach to portraiture and African symbolism.
